2. DA Pam 385-63 provides implementation guidance for the Marine Corps Range Safety
Program.
3. SOP each range or range complex will have its own standard operating pro-
cedure (SOP). The SOP for an installation will have installation -specific
instructions for range safety. You must read the most current Sop for
the range that you will be using.
4. USMC Range Safety The USMC Range Safety Pocket Guide summarizes the policies and
Pocket Guide procedures needed to conduct a live-fire event. This document contains
information on surface danger zones (SDZ) setup for weapon systems.
The Pocket Guide also provides the OIC and RSO with a checklist that
will assist them with their most common tasks
5. SOUM Safety Of Use Memorandums (SOUM) are how the Range and Training
Area Management (RTAM) Branch provides range safety information
and guidance to the Marine Corps Total Force. This guidance is directive
until the SOUM is cancelled, changed or written into the Range Safety
